where f is a focal length of the optical system, i is an order of each of the plurality of lenses counted from an enlargement side, R i1 and R i2 are curvature radii of lens surfaces of an i-th lens at the enlargement side and a reduction side in a cross section including an optical axis, respectively, N i and ν i are a refractive index and an Abbe number of the i-th lens, respectively, φ i1 =(N i −1)/R i1 , and φ i2 =(1−N i )/R i2 .
2 . The optical system according to claim 1 , wherein the following conditional expression is satisfied:
8.3≤ L/f≤ 12.5,
where L is a distance on the optical axis from a focal point of the optical system at the enlargement side to a reducing plane.
3 . The optical system according to claim 1 , wherein
the plurality of lenses includes one or more negative lenses and one or more positive lenses, and the following conditional expressions are satisfied:
35≤ν n , and
25≤ν p −ν n ,
where ν n is an Abbe number of the negative lens having a smallest Abbe number among the one or more negative lenses, and ν p is an Abbe number of the positive lens having a largest Abbe number among the one or more positive lenses.
4 . The optical system according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the plurality of lenses includes an aspheric surface that is rotationally asymmetric about the optical axis.
5 . The optical system according to claim 4 , wherein the lens including the aspheric surface is made of a resin.
6 . The optical system according to claim 4 , wherein the lens disposed closest to the reduction side among the plurality of lenses includes the aspheric surface.
7 . The optical system according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of lenses includes a positive lens, a negative lens, a positive lens, and a positive lens disposed in this order from the enlargement side.
8 . The optical system according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of lenses includes a negative lens, a positive lens, a negative lens, a positive lens, and a negative lens disposed in this order from the enlargement side.
9 . The optical system according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of lenses includes a positive lens, a negative lens, a positive lens, a positive lens, and a positive lens disposed in this order from the enlargement side.
10 . The optical system according to claim 1 , wherein an aperture stop is disposed between a positive lens and a negative lens included in the plurality of lenses, the positive lens being disposed closest to the enlargement side among the plurality of lenses, the negative lens being disposed adjacent to a reduction side of the positive lens.
11 . The optical system according to claim 1 , wherein the lens surface at the enlargement side of the lens disposed closest to the enlargement side among the plurality of lenses has a convex shape toward the enlargement side.
12 . The optical system according to claim 1 , wherein the lens surface at the reduction side of the lens disposed closest to the reduction side among the plurality of lenses has a convex shape toward the reduction side.
13 . An image reading apparatus comprising:
the optical system according to claim 1 ; and a light receiving unit that receives a light flux from an object condensed by the optical system.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
